Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Joel Roth <jo...@pobox.com> This is one of several dependencies for a perl app I am planning to debianize.
* Package name : libdata-yaml-perl Version : 0.0.6 Upstream Author : Andy Armstrong <a...@hexten.net> * URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Data-YAML * License : Artistic Programming Lang: Perl Description : Easy YAML serialisation of Perl data structures In the spirit of YAML::Tiny, Data::YAML::Reader and Data::YAML::Writer provide lightweight, dependency-free YAML handling. While YAML::Tiny is designed principally for working with configuration files Data::YAML concentrates on the transparent round- tripping of YAML serialized Perl data structures. As an example of why this distinction matters consider that YAML::Tiny doesn't handle hashes with keys containing non-printable characters. This is fine for configuration files but likely to cause problems when handling arbitrary Perl data structures. Data::YAML handles exotic hash keys correctly. The syntax accepted by Data::YAML is a subset of YAML. Specifically it is the same subset of YAML that Data::YAML::Writer produces. See Data::YAML for more information. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
